This year I decided to have a bit of a laugh with my Halloween Costume. Since I give the Haunted Dahlonega Tours for the Dahlonega Gold Museum for September & October I already have a number of wonderful period costumes. 

I thought it would be funny to depict 'Miss Kitty' who owns the 'Wild Cat Saloon' down in 'Knucklesville' as a cat. The saloon girl outfit would be from anywhere in the USA during 1850-1900. Wow what a huge time period. So why so long? Well- that is because the fun dance the 'Can Can' began in the 1840's and was the hot fun dance until about 1900. Oddly the 'Can Can' began as a guy's dance- not a girls! Anyway without further ado...

DNR and the FODGM held a joint event on Oct 29, 2016- "NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM"
We had the exhibits come alive (like the movie) and interact with the public. Afterwards there was a special Haunted Dahlonega Tour (part of the ticket price). WOW we had over 100 people come on out!
